Charcoal Tablets and Burner Sand for Smudging, Incense, Herbs
You will receive two (2) tubes of 10 tablets of Holland Brand 40mm charcoal each, AND a 3 oz. (by weight) bag of rainbow sand to protect the bottom of your incense burner.* We use Holland brand ourselves, and feel they are top quality, reliable hookah charcoals. This is the perfect size bag of sand for most small or medium size burners and shells. If you have an overly large burner, please convo me and I am happy to make a custom weight bag of sand listing just for you, if you may need more.
Smoke cleansing with loose herbs and resins is a tradition as old as time, utilized by peoples of most spiritual and religious traditions. Herbs and resins have individual healing properties, known to our ancient ancestors, and used and appreciated in modern times, as well. Use herbs and tree resins to purify, clear, calm, and neutralize chaotic or unwanted energies.
To smudge yourself or another, hold the charcoal disk with tongs or fingers, light the charcoal disk (be careful not to burn your fingers), place into censer or other smudging vessel such as an abalone shell. When it ashes over gray, place herbs or resins directly on the charcoal. Direct incense smoke (this is typically done with a feather) toward the heart, then over the head, down the arms and the front of the body. To smudge a home, open windows if possible to allow the room to clear. Walk room to room wafting smoke as you go, say a personal blessing if needed. For objects, waft smoke over object or pass object through the smoke (if small).
"The word ‘smudge’ comes from the old English word smogen. It is cited in several dictionaries as coming from 1400-50 late Middle English. It means to smear, blur, obscure, to smother with smoke, to use dense smoke to protect an area from insects. Another meaning is also ‘taken by surprise’. In English the term ‘smudge’ also means smut or dirt. It has been in use since the 15th century, and first appeared after the Norman conquest, so it’s certainly of Germanic origin." - Rachel Patterson
Smoke cleansing is a recommended and welcome practice on a frequent basis to clear negative or stagnant energy, clear energies from your body and mind after work, and to purify the air during and after illnesses of all kinds. Also a wonderful tool to cleanse new items entering your home, or after visitors exit, to neutralize and charge the air with positive energy. Smudging can, and should, be done during ritual of any tradition, to create sacred space, and charge ritual tools.
